Leading video game publisher and developer NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. today announced the launch of PAC-MAN +Tournaments™, the first free-to-play PAC-MAN game in the classic series, now available exclusively for Google Play.

Players can download PAC-MAN +Tournaments™ now for free on Google Play here.

In addition to a completely free version of the original 1980 PAC-MAN, PAC-MAN +Tournaments™ introduces a Tournament mode with new features that complement the tried-and-true PAC-MAN formula with endless gameplay, social competition, constantly updated brand new content. Arriving on Android free of charge, PAC-MAN +Tournaments™ will please fans while giving a new generation of PAC-MAN players the chance to jump into one of gaming’s most iconic franchises.

“PAC-MAN was the first video game available for Android phones back in 2008, and with PAC-MAN +Tournaments™, we’re excited to expand our Google Play lineup with a game that revitalizes that beloved gameplay for a whole new group of fans,” said James Kucera, Head of Mobile, NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. “My favorite part is the balance of new and old – players will be excited about the new Tournament mode, while the leaderboards and friend system harken back to the competitive arcade atmosphere from PAC-MAN’s beginnings.”

When they’re not busy chasing down power pellets or chasing their friends up the leaderboards, PAC-MAN +Tournaments™ players can look forward to new Tournaments, new achievements, new mazes and scoring objectives. If that’s not enough, the most skilled players can even win real-world prizes like PAC-MAN memorabilia and gadgets, delivered straight to their door (U.S. only, at release). Eager to give fans great new content, NAMCO BANDAI will release exclusive DLC in the future.
